Even if it's just posturing and "discipline" how to mend the relationship after that? I don't see a way. Even if he's not traded now, this will come up in the future again and again if Phil hasn't got fired.
It's just too bad Phil will be fired before Morey has a chance to take advantage of his stupidity. Maybe they can take Ryan Anderson real fast?
If danny doesn't do this deal he's crazy I would give up the #1 pick for him, Magic also no way I draft ball instead of taking whats for sure
Wow. Phil Jackson is REALLY REALLY HORRIBLE. He's the Dan Gilbert of GM or the Jeremy Lin of PG. I mean, Melo has ZERO Trade value because all Phil does is bad mouth Melo And now he alienate his Franchise player by trying to trade him and also bad mouthing him because he didn't show up for the exit interview. WHAT IS PHIL DOING? TRYING TO GET FIRED AND COLLECT THAT MONEY like Derek Fisher?? Steve Kerr got lucky!!! He took the Knicks job and then changed his mind at the last second when Stan Van Gundy turned down the Warriors to take the Piston job. In Summary: Stan Van Gurdy turned down the Warriors job. Kerr took the Knicks job and changed him mind after Warriors offered him the position and only because Van Gundy thought the Piston job was better!! LOL
Can you believe this if you're a Knicks and a Nets fan? If there such a thing. The 2 worst franchise Knicks and Nets. LOL Nets already blew their future away. How did Celtic manage to get their #1 pick 2 years in a row??? Now Phil wants to destroy the Knicks like King did with the Nets Micah Adams ✔ @MicahAdams13 10 have averaged 18 PPG and 2 Blks PG within 1st 2 seasons. - 7 are in HOF. - 2 are Tim Duncan and Anthony Davis. - Kristaps Porzingis. 9:10 AM - 20 Jun 2017
Kevin Van Valkenburg @KVanValkenburg As a Laker fan, I'll remind you Phil once demanded Kobe be traded so LA could keep old, fat Shaq, who was purposefully not playing hard.
I really do think Phil is trying his best to get fired and so he can chill and live in LA, but the Knicks owner is an idiot.
Sounds like Chriss and #4 would get it done, but the Suns don't want to deal Chriss (or Booker, obviously).
Porzingis is the biggest player available. Most potential and better in 2 years than George Butler Hayward Griffin Millsap Paul etc.
There's gonna be a lot of trades happening on draft night and I think the shocker would be Magic trading Randal, number 2 draft pick and another player for George or Porzingas.
I would love for Porzingis to leaves the Knicks. I like seeing the Knicks be terrible. But I like Porzingis. So if he leaves I can continue rooten against the Knicks without reservation. Please do not go to the Lakers or warriors.
hahaha look at this! This guy is Jackson's mouthpiece. Whatever Jackson has to say and can't, he has this guy Rosen a "journalist" to do the dirty job. Here is what he posted today https://www.fanragsports.com/nba/knicks/knicks-trade-kristaps-porzingis/ " So, given the likelihood that the Knicks will not be the kind of winners that the brothers Porzingis require during the next two seasons, the chances are that New York would lose him in 2019-20. Why not trade him now while he’s healthy and has optimum appeal? If so, what might the Knicks get in return? It would probably amount to two or three starters, which would probably include an all-star-caliber player, plus at least a No. 1 draft pick." "In my nearly 40-year friendship with Jackson, the only thing I know for sure is that it’s impossible to know for sure what he might do in any given situation." He makes it sound like Porzingis will turn down a max and take the qo for sure. He also called him naive for taking Melo's side and rebelling to the way he's being treated.
